The Embezzlement Case.

Young Frank Morgan, Western
Union telegraph operator, yesterday
evening had preliminary examlna-
ton on the charge of embezzling 1928
from J. C. Hill, a farmer living near
this city. II seems that Hill was OH
the grand jury during its late sitting,
and upon Saturday night, to late 10
draw money from the bank, went to
the Western Union Office and asked
Mr.. Morgan for So, agreeing to give
him his (ililps) check for S25, to be
deposited at the Glen Lea saloon for
safe keeping until Mr.. Hill should
come back TO town, the first Part of
the next week. The check was depos-
tied. but Monday morning Morgan
went to the saloon and got the check,
went to the bank and drew the 1925
and subsequently Showed it ill.," as he
termed it. When Mr.. Hill called for
his money Morgan had spent it, and
claimed that he bought the check of
! Hill for So, but feeling sorry for
Phim, as was in testimony, he
Afered to give him five dollars, which
Hill agreed to take if Morgan would
give him his due bill. which Morgan
refused to do. because he said the
company would learn of it and dis
charge him. Hill gathered no further
satisfaction, had Morgan arrested for
embezzlement. Morgan and Hill had
met on Friday night previous to the
day on which the transaction was made
and it appeared in evidence that the
parties went on n jamboree together
hence the acquaintance and intimacy.
Judge Braswell said that the evil
dence was conflicting; that Hill got So
and Morgan a check for 1925, the check
TO be deposited at the Glen Lea saloon
by mutual consent, that the Glen Lea
saloon was in the light stake holder,
and he believed that the Glen Lea sa-
loon could be held responsible for the
money, but the trouble began when
the young man went back Monday
morning and got the money and pro-
ceeded to "blow it n," and that he
could not do otherwise in his court
but bind tn" young man over and that
the grand jury might see more or less
in, or that the parties might think
letter of each other and arrive at some
Yamcable understanding. AS stated
Yesterday in the HERALD, Morgan was
placed under bonds in the sum Of 5000.

As representatives in the above line
the HERALD would call particular at
tention to the extensive and well ap-
pointed stables of Work IL Smith, cor
ner Elm and Market streets, (Bowser
~ Lemmon's old stand). The building
has recently undergone extensive re-
pairs, and has been fitted up to the
order of these gentlemen so as to have
everything convenient, comfortable
and elegant. One OF the many good
features is that the upper floor is used
ms their carriage and buggy room, be-
ing connected with down stairs by
one of the latest improved elevators.
This feature in having their carriage
room away from the dust, enables
them to keep their vehicles in better
trim than if they were exposed. Capt.
j. A. Work is the pioneer livery man
of Dallas, fine judge of horses and
men, and with his large practical OK
perience in the bushes, with
the ener y, push, enterprise
and experience Of Mr.. w. II. w.
Smith, our former sheriff, the firm
make fine team. These gentlemen
have as fine driving stock as can be
found in the South, gentle, kind and
fast. Their saddle horses are thor
oughly gated and stylish, while their
pleasure vehicles comprise nearly
'SSery design in buggics, surrcys, jump
seats, phetons, etc. In fact. Work IL
\Smith can turn out at any moment n
Stylish and safe rig of any descrip-
ton. These gentlemen board a large
number of horses belonging to our
citizens. Extra care is taken with
boarders and vehicles. Work Il Smiths
stables also offer inducements to those
wanting to buy or sell riding or driv-
ing stock. If you desire a turnout
for pleasure or for business, telephone

PER ATTN G
PILLS,
For Constipation,
Sluggish Liver, etc.

Unlike many kinds OF cathartic
- medicines, do not make you
feel worse before you feel better.
Their operation is gentle, but thor
ough, and unattended with disagree
able effects, such as nausea, gripping
pains, &c.
Seigel's Operating Pills
are the best family physic that has
ever been discovered. They cleanse
the bowels from all irritating sub
stances, and leave them in healthy
condition.
The best remedy extant for the
bane of our lives-constipation and
sluggish liver.
These Pills prevent fevers and all
kinds of sickness, by removing all
poisonous matter from the bowels.
They operate briskly, yet mildly,
without any pain.
If you take severe cold, and are
threatened with fever, with pains
in the head, back and limbs, one or
two doses of Seigel's Operat-
ing Pills will break up the cold
and prevent fever.
A coated tongue, with brackish
taste, caused by foul matter in the
stomach. A few doses of SeigePS
Operating Pills will cleanse the
stomach, remove the bad taste, and
restore the appetite, and with it
bring good health.
Oftentimes disease, or partially
decayed food, causes sickness, nau-
sea and diarrhpa. If the bowels are
cleansed from this impurity with a
dose of Seigel's Operating
Pills, these disagreeable effects
will vanish, and good health result.
Seigel's Operating Pills
prevent ill-effects from excess in
eating or drinking. A good dose at
bedtime renders person fit for bust
ness in the morning.
These pills, being Sugar-coated,
are pleasant to take. The disagree
able taste common to most pills is
obviated.

BEAUTIFUL WOMEN.

A tendency of the present day is
the laXity of conversation permitted
by many ladies in society in their
male friends. This latter evil is one
of very. rapid growth, and has
spread in many cases from the mar
ried women even to the girls, who
think that they can make themselves
as agreeable to the men as their sue
cessful rivals by adopting the same
style and allowing the same free
dom of conversation.
This, to a great extent, is attri-
butable to the rage for beautiful
women which for some time now has
been dominant in London society
for now n woman, if she is eX-
tremely lovely and can get an intro
duction, is sure to be star in
society for time, no matter what
her position may be and whether it
entities her to be feted and made
much of by the great ones of the
land, and wishing to make her reign
as successful as possible and until a
brighter star arises and eclipses her,
permits and encourages that loose
kind of conversation that is so at
tractive to many men.
This rage for beauty has been a
great bane in London society for
some time, and has rightly been a
source of annoyance to the younger
unmarried members of families who
hold their position by right, for it
is an undoubted hardship for them
to feel themselves shelved and neg
lected 10y the men in favor of the
fashionable beauties, and some of
the sillier of them think that they
can improve their position by copy
ing the ways, manners and CONVEX
sation of these piratical craft. So
ciety has lately advanced a stage
further, and the beauties of London
society whose "face is their fortune"
are now finding rivals in successful
showmen, whose merits as pets OF
the fashionable world are not pro-
perly appreciated in their own
country.
This same worship of successful
Snowman is in close analogy to the
later and more rotten days of the
Roman empire, when the gladiators
were the favored ones and pets of
the Roman ladies. Society, again,
is open to all who have the golden
key; and if any aspirant who does
not happen to have beautiful face,
or to be successful show
man with flowing locks and wild APP
pearance, can judiciously get taken
up, and is willing to spend unlimited
money, his or her success is also
assured London Saturday Re-

BUILDING MONUMENTS.

Through life we build our monuments
OF honor and perhaps of fame;
The little and the great events
Are blocks OF glory or Of shame.
The modest, humble, and obscure,
Living nnnoticed and unknown,
MAY raise shaft that will endure
Longer than pyramids of stone,
The caryen statue turn to dust,
AMI marble obelisks decay,
But deeds of pity, faith and trust,
No storms Of fate can sweep away.
Their base stands on the rock Of right
Their apex reaches to the skies;
They glow with the increasing light
OF all the circlihg centuries.
Our building must be good or bad;
In words we speak, IN deeds we do;
On sand or granite must be laid
The shaft that shows us fal,e or true.
How do we build-what can we show
For hours and days and years of toilP
Is the foundation firm below?
Is it on rock or sandy soil?
The hand that lifts the fallen up,
That heals heart or binds wound !;
That Civ s the needed crust and cup,
Is building upon solid ground.
Is there block of stainless white
" thin the monumental wall,
On which the scruptured skill can write,
"He builded well, so should we ALL"

A C1OL DRIVER.

AS the Downieyille stage was
going down the Mountain House
grade several days ago the eight
passengers on board had an expert
ence long to be remembered. The
reins attached to the horses were
scorched at the Camptonville fire,
but were considered safe. In going
down the steep grade, which is six
miles long, the rein to one of the
wheel horses broke. A passenger
on the front seat with the driver,
Walter Finchley, became excited
and made grab for the lines.
This started the horses on dead
run down the grade, and the driver
having lost control of the animals
knew that something must be done
very quickly. He glanced down
the road some distance and saw
John Yore and family of Downie-
vile coming up the hill in a light
wagon. At this critical moment
Finchley whipped out his revolver
and was just in the act of shooting
down one of his 'wheelers" when
he spied a stump on the side of the
road just ahead. Holding his pistol
ready for use in case of necessity
he turned the "leaders" in direct
line with the stump. The head
horses plunged over the stump, but
one of the rear horses ran square
into it, tearing his breast open, but
bringing the outfit to a standstill
and throwing the driver to the
ground. Fortunately but little
damage was DONE Red Bluff Sen
tinel.

THE ABOVE REQUEST is HEARD

it is an undispulcd fact that most smokers

It is fact that all mild cigars agree
well with smokers, for in most cases

one brand which suits the most fastidious
